Features and Benefits

2.3.1

Connectivity

36 internal Gigabit ports for easy network integration of your server cards (SB6: 18 ports).
8 external 1000BASE-T Gigabit ports for uplinking to the corporate network (SB6: 6 ports).
4 SFP Gigabit ports for uplinking to the corporate network. (SB11a)
2 SFP+ 10Gigabit ports for uplinking to the corporate network. (SB11)
Support for auto MDI/MDI-X on external ports allows any connections to be made with
straight-through cable (with auto-negotiation enabled).
Auto-negotiation enables each port to automatically select the optimum speed (10,100 or 1000Mbps)
and communication mode (half or full duplex) if this feature is supported by attached device;
otherwise the port can be configured manually.
IEEE 802.3ad Gigabit Ethernet compliance ensures compatibility with standards-based network
cards and switch from vendor.
